Three of the four men -- ages 80, 74, 65 and 50 -- were found in the garage and taken to an area hospital where they were in stable condition on Saturday; the fourth man, who was found inside the house, was taken to the police station to make a statement, she said.

Authorities said at least some of the men were believed to have been homeless. "What the men initially told us was they were lured there with the promise of cigarettes and food," Silva said.

But once inside the tan brick house with purple trim, they were not allowed to leave, she said. "They were apparently given scraps to eat," Silva said. "Very little food was being provided to them."

The men told the officers that they had been held for varying lengths of time. One man said it felt like 10 years, but Silva said, "Whether it goes into years or not is unknown."

The case came to light after a caller to 911 told police on Friday morning that three or four people were being held there against their will.
